you’re just a shadow now, of the girl i used to know your broken song is maimed and slow you strain your face to bear that smile your teeth clenched tightly all the while

and though you search so thoroughly for some place to put the blame it only rests on angry shoulders and you don’t look the same

your pretty face now contorted haggard with shame i try to recognize your anger i try to recognize your hatred i try to find some purpose for your pride

so cease your screaming now because your voice is worn and ho-rs- your song insinuates divorce your poison love, i won’t pursue

you’re not the lover i once knew and though you speak so firmly of maxims so bold your lips mouth words of love but still your voice is callused and cold

i try to understand what made this mess unfold i’m sure you couldn’t be blamed your features haven’t changed and yet i can’t imagine why you don’t look the same

and your song of broken trust is grating on my ears i’m tired of standing p-ssive while you’re preying on my fears i’m tired of trying to fight, i’m tired of taking sides you say that you’re not angry but i see it in your eyes
